The L-shaped brackets...those go in the trash. The pins you should ram in your eyes, after screwing the canards into your ***, where they will be equally useless but not quite as ugly as they would be on your car.

OK, since I'm not a jerk, I'll help.
The pins are for riveting them to the airdam. This is to help deter theft, supposedly. I threw them away, went to Lowe's and got some 1/2" bolts (#10?) and some t-nuts and screwed them in that way. They still can't be unscrewed from the outside that way, but they can be easily removed for auto-x's (I don't need them to act like cone catchers )
Good luck.

Re: Front bumper Canard/Air splitters (Wong Wonder)
This guy didnt ask for your oppinions. He has already bought the Canards and obviously likes them. So shut up. If you dont have nothing nice to say, dont, because you are helping nobody. to the people who actually helped.

Where can you get these and who makes them. I know Jay's does and you have to order them from Japan, any other places in the US?
